Abstract
ABSTRACT Reconcentrating absorbent brines in a packed bed brine-air contactor was modeled in an earlier study. The use of the model is demonstrated for reconcentrating brines using solar energy for absorption-driven liquid-food evaporation. Three methods of brine reconcentration are evaluated: 1) a focusing solar collector to boil off water from the brine, 2) a focusing solar collector and an air-assisted water stripper, and 3) flat plate solar collectors and an air assisted water stripper. A capital cost analysis shows that the focusing solar collector with an air assisted water stripper is more economical than the other two.
